Carlos A. Pérez posted a blog post

I'm pretty sure you may find this interesting.

Look, I know that one of the bans for blogs is proselytizing. However, I don't exactly know whether this counts as such (so if it is, sorry) and, considering I think this is a really interesting topic, I'm wondering whether you could all pitch in and give me your opinion. (By the way, I'm a Roman Catholic, for those that know me).It's a long video, but I personally find it so interesting I'm seeing it twice out of the wonder it inspires.…See More

"Wow. It feels like AGES since I've been here. Feels good to be back, though.In regards to Luther, if you actually study him, you will find yourself very much doubting, not so much his ability with the Bible - which is, however, very doubtful…"

"Ok, I REALLY want to answer this, but I can't do so in a hasty way. I have what I want to say, but it's all jumbled up in my head and I might need some sources.I am absolute terrified of miscommunication from my part in this site. One word…"

Carlos A. Pérez replied to Phil Tibbs's discussion 'How do Christians know the difference between God and Satan?'

"I just understood. Sorry. And I see that I kind of talked incoherently there. It is through our free will that we incur in sin. Nevertheless, it's through the tempter, Satan, that many of our choices are steeped in struggle. That is why there…"

Profile Information

Your Religious Status: Christian, Catholic

About Me:: Hello! My name is Carlos and I joined the site because... well... I like to know the atheists argument.

I'm a Roman Catholic. I was raised so, but I left and, after doing some research, I kind of came back to it.

I love arguing and discussing, but for so long as there is dialogue! Well, for so long as people are hearing each other, I suppose.

Age: 19-24

Why are you here?: As I said above, I like to know the atheists side... and I also love arguing and debating! For so long as they allow it in the site and it's in a reasonable way, I suppose...

How did you hear about Think Atheist?: Stumble!

You are remaining calm and courteous while Reo and Michael are resorting to personal attacks. It is refreshing to find someone who agrees to disagree without deciding to resort to name-calling those who they don't agree with. Thanks

Though, please note that if you're here to evangelize, very few [if any] of us will be convinced. So, trying to "bring us to god" is a waste of time. Although we will be happy to engage you in intellectual and polite debate and answer any questions you might have about atheism.
